Average Rating:
 Rating:  - DO NOT BUY THIS BLENDERI wish I would have read the reviews here BEFORE I purchased this piece of junk. Granted, mine lasted longer than some of the others (almost 18 months), but the end result is the same... a funny smell and then it just stops working. I called Black & Decker and all they would tell me was that it had been longer than the 12-month warranty period, and there was nothing they could do about it. I told them that it just didn't seem right, being that it had only been used a maximum of 40 times and that there must be some design flaw or something, but they didn't care. I told them that I had purchased this model because I thought it would be more durable, especially based on it's name (Crush Master). But the customer representative, and later a supervisor I spoke to said that "corporate" dictates what they can do. I told the supervisor that it would seem that Black & Decker should be concerned about a product that has a problem that might be a result of faulty design, and further, they should be concerned with their customers who paid to have something that would last and not break down after only a dozen and a half uses. The supervisor only reiterated Black & Decker's policy. I then told her that I would NEVER buy another Black & Decker product ever again and I would tell my family and my friends and everyone I could to do the same. I suggest you follow suit. Rating: - Product engineer should be firedI have one comment for Applica, they should fire the engineers and product managers for this product. The Black & Decker line of blenders are riddled with design flaws and manufacturing flaws, it's a complete failure. You can't pay me enough to take one home again. 1) The screw groove of the glass jar seat is in the same direction as how you seat the entire assembly onto the blender motor assembly. When you are screwing the assembly into the bottom, you will end up unscrewing the glass jar from its seat. When you unscrewing apart the glass jar assembly from the motor assembly, you are again unscrewing the glass jar. The only way to safely aseemble the two pieces is to hold the white plastic seating piece. Hamilton Beach designed it correctly by using opposite screw grooves. This is the most irritating flaw on these blenders. 2) the motor is sooooooooo loud, even with nothing in the blender, it sounded like this thing is ready to take down the house. 3) reliability doesn't exist. I blend one protein shake a day, just protein powder and water at low speed--probably the least power demanding blending job I can think of. After 1 week, that's 5 uses, the motor gave out. My other 15 year old Hamilton Beach is still going strong. 4) the motor vibrates so much, the plastic glass-jar cap will loosen up and pop open during blending. This would allow liquid to splatter all over. Total piece of junk. If you want to buy an inexpensive blender, go for Hamilton Beach. Rating: - Motor burned out after two weeks.After about a week of use this blender was working fine for me. However, in its second week of use the motor seemed to be making noise, slowing down, & creating a burnt smell that one usually doesn't want to smell from household appliances. I wasn't working the blender too much...simply making a half pitcher of smoothies once a day. By the end of week two the motor finally called it quits. I died a painful death by emitting smoke out of the bottom of the blender. In short, this blender really sucked. I would expect a little more durability from a product with "Crush Master" in its title. Rating: - Bad BlenderThe first B&D blender lasted 3 uses and then quit. The motor just quit. The seller replaced it with the same model and it died after 3 uses too. Same problem. Granted, these are heavy duty uses. I blend up about 5 quarts of fruits, vegetables, and nuts once a week. This includes carrots, celery, kale, other leafy veggies, onions, cauliflower, brocoli & stems, etc. Nevertheless, I have a 20-year old General Electric blender that still does it OK. If that old work horse can still cut it, these new B&D powerhouses should be able to last a lot longer than 3 uses! It is a powerful blender, but there is just no excuse for two blenders in a row biting it in exactly the same way.
